This project explores how fruit flies detect and respond to chemical signals through their olfactory system. It focuses on a newly discovered family of olfactory receptors, aiming to understand their function and the neural circuits involved in odor recognition and behavior.
Chemosensory systems permit organisms to perceive diverse chemicals in the environment signalling the presence of food, dangers, kin or mates.
How a specific chemical stimulus is recognised and converted into neural activity that provokes the appropriate behaviour is a fundamental problem in neuroscience. I investigate this question in the olfactory system of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, which exhibits sophisticated odour-driven behaviours under the control of a simple and genetically…
